I added 3G iPad & keeping wifi only-how do I sync both on same iTunes acct?

I've had my wifi iPad for months and love it, but travel a lot so I bought the 3G version. I'm keeping my wifi iPad for the fam, at least until I sell it.
When I connect the new iPad to the computer, it recognizes it as new and asks if I want to sync with the latest back-up of "Dani's iPad" (name of my older one), or set up as new?
I obviously want everything on my wifi version to transfer and be available on my 3G version - how do I do this without erasing anything?
I'm nervous because I have an iPod touch and when I connected my first iPad initially, it completely changed my iTunes library, actually erasing several playlists and such. I definitely don't want that to happen again!
Thanks for your help!

Just say yes to syncing to the backup of you original iPad. I do not understand what you did with your iTouch.
I just synced my new iTouch with the backup of my iPad. Everything synced fine except, as expected, with the iPad only apps. or the iPad-only apps I got a message which said they were not compatible and would not be synced.

  • A 6 and a 6 Plus with seperate phone numbers are receiving txts sent to only one number. They share the same iTunes acct. Is this the problem?

    Hmm... Just found out the 6 and 6 Plus were updated to 8.1.1 today. Coincidently, that's when this started.
    Another thing is both phones ring and you can answer either one, or both. fwding is not selected.
    Thanks Kilted Tim.

    @ Gypsygypsy,
    You will need to have location services on for maps and the other apps that you require location settings for.
    Settings : Privacy : Location Services
    I hope this helps

  • Husband and i both have iphones...how to sync both to one itunes acct but keep separate info.?

    We both have 3GS iphones.  We want to sync using the same computer, same iTunes, same music, but different content (don't want same calendars, contacts, etc.). I keep seeing where you can choose how to sync separately, but am doing something wrong because we keep getting synced the same, as though one phone acct.  Step-by-step info. please.

    Here are your choices explained in detail:

  • What is the best option for tethering my IPhone 4s with my iPad? (the iPad is wifi only)

    What is the best option for tethering my IPhone 4s with my iPad? (the iPad is wifi only)

    #1. Understand that if you switch carriers, you can NOT take your existing iPhone with you. It won't work. You will need to purchase a new one.
    #2. Your only choices are Sprint and Verizon. Decide who has the better coverage in your area. Keep in mind that you will NOT be able to get simultaneous voice and 3G data on either of these, as their CDMA networks do not support it. The U.S. T-Mobile network is not supported and is not fully compatible with the iPhone as it operates on a rarely used frequency compared to the rest of the world.
    #3. What in the world are "niners"? Do you mean you want to be able to keep your existing "phone numbers"? If so, that should be no problem. Most numbers in the US are now portable.
    #4. Consider WHY you want to switch. If the issue is really price, you're not going to see much of a difference. A few dollars a month at best for comparable voice and data plans.

  • HT1689 how do i sync downloaded music from itunes to my ipad?  It will only sync purchased music.

    How do I sync downloaded music from itunes to my ipad?  It will only sync purchased music.

    You must "Add" the tracks to your library. Select Add to Library from iTunes' File menu. Select your downloaded track(s) then click on the Open button in the file dialog. Once added to the library you can select and sync them in the Music configuration tab in the iTunes main window for your device.

  • HT3529 On ipad3, wifi only, how can I send messages to non iOS users?

    On ipad3, wifi only, how can I send messages to non iOS users?
    I have MacBook, and iPhone 4 as well

    Your're wrong on the overly sensitive part. I couldn't care less about android or some other stuff that you are comparing, what i do care about... enough to take the time to explain, is that your view on things colors the choices you make.
    You clearly state your decision making process and the marketing is doing their work on you.
    You think in terms of comparisons and competitors and that will always get you. The truth is, I'm glad Apple finally focused on how "something makes you feel" with iOS 7. There is so much truth in that one sentence!
    There is so much noise out there about screen size, n core processors and price comparisons you can never get a good feel of what the product really is. By the time you figure out you were taken on a marketing hike, a new model comes out and the story starts all over again. (think of the nokia 40 megapixel camera, or the quad core samsung, those are exagerations to impress the consumer) Imagine the size of the jpg's on that phone, all those megapixels with the quality of a phone camera, ridiculous. Soon we will have 12-core phones with 7 inch screens, and people being led into thinking you can do everything on it, "one thing to rule them all", buy now! I saw a woman on the metro the other day with a 6' phone, I swear the thing was almost half the size of her head.
    It's almost 2014 and you are complaining you can't send sms(which is a 25 year old technology by the way) with this new device. All your friends are using outdated tech and because you want to talk to them you want outdated tech too. Sms is insecure, easily snooped upon and recorded, the carrier charges for it and charges more for international sms, and so on... and on... internet chat has been free since the 1990s and it's about time it got free on our phones too.
    Just forget about it. Enjoy other people taking the decisions, you can't take yourself, for you. Trust them, see if it fits, care about life, act emotionally when you "feel" like it. You deserve that, you are human, take the feeling home with you, share it with others.
    Who cares if it's the 2014 edition or quad core... I gave my old iPad 3 to my grandmother so I could call her on Facetime. I bought the iPad Air on a whim, I just "felt" I wanted it. After a couple of weeks she thought about asking me if she could call my brother in the UK too, and how much it would cost. I said it was free, and she looked at me in disbelief. She is now calling my brother weekly by herself... she is 78. Can you imagine that... all I did is give her my "old" iPad.
    Buying the iPad Air was the single best decision of my life, not because of the size or the weight or even iOS 7 (i do enjoy them by the way) but because it made me give my old iPad to my grandmother.
    She doesn't even understand how it works, I figured it would be too much useless stuff to mention... it just does! Here put your finger here and here, then tap the name... wait for him to answer. Unbelievable!!!
    PS. I figured the best gift I can make is give my old Apple devices to people who would never in a million years buy one for themselves. You see them in shops, they are our mothers and friends... they look at the huge prices and they would never give that much to themselves, they feel they don't deserve it. They gave me money to buy all the useless cr@p I ever wanted in my youth, the least I could do is gift them my "old tech" to enrich their lives. Going to buy a 5S soon and give my 4S to someone for free, but it's going to be someone I care deeply about, deeply enough to change their lives.

  • How do I sync multiple devices on iTunes without apps that are only on an iPad Air not sync on other devices?

    How do I sync multiple devices on iTunes (iPad Air & iPhone 5) without apps that are only on an iPad Air not syncing on my iPhone 5? I have apps on the iPad that I do not want on the iPhone, but when I sync my iPhone I have apps that are on the iPad sync to it also. How do I fix this so only the apps/data on each device sync to it?

    Settings
    iTUnes and app store
    turn off automatic downloads for apps
    Then what you buy on one device only goes onto another if you want it to

  • He "seller" resets the iPad for me to use, do I have to get it re-activated or purchase a contract/service plan if I ONLY ever plan to use the iPad for Wifi Only???

    Question to all the pros..I'm looking to purchase an iPad 4g second hand. Once the "seller" resets the iPad for me to use, do I have to get it re-activated or purchase a contract/service plan if I ONLY ever plan to use the iPad for Wifi Only???

    No you don't need a service plan to use wifi. Take special precautions to make sure the seller is the owner. Be sure all their information has been removed properly. If it were me I wouldn't give the person the money until the iPad is registered in my name. I've read too many horror stories of people buying iPads they'll never be able to use because someone else's ID was still on it.

  • Can I make bbm work on my ipad 4 wifi only (jailed) ???

    I have a ipad 4 wifi only model and I want to use bbm on it ...is there any possible way to do so !!!

    Yes there is!
    I have an iPad 4 and bbm works like normal.. when downloading it you have to search 'BBM', then at the top of the screen change 'iPad only' to 'iPhone only'. BBM was optimized for iPhone so it will look blury, but its better than nothing!
